About This Perfume
Think sweet berry cupcakes with coffee cream: that is Dolce&Gabbana The Only One 2. It opens with red berries, freesia and pear, moves into coffee, red rose and violet and settles on tonka bean and patchouli. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
It is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. A good pick for casual days and date nights. Released in 2019.
In the community's experience it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and sweet for casual days.
- Sample first if: sweet is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fruity fragrances.
Around $72.
